Miralem Pjanic

[Iniesta Ultra]

You're not even trying anymore dawg.

Nico's not worth my time for a performance analysis. I can't think of anyone less skilled who's played this many minutes for Barca before, the polarization with Puig aligns with Xavi's motivations.

was referring to the pedri part

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

was referring to the pedri part

He's not as slow as Busi, not as confident at ball retention although dunno actual respective stats for it but relies mostly on conservative less risky passes which is why I want him out of AM positions. The assists Lewa made yesterday for him you would never see Pedri make himself. He has good long pass accuracy so I would try in an ideal sporting world Puig/Pedri/Silva in the middle.

 

[Gnidrologist]

He would be huge for United.

 

[Andresito]

He would be huge for United.

He for real would improve that midfield though. But I'm sure Arthur and Rabiot would as well which isn't very telling.

 

[Horatio]

lol Arthur would be a complete disaster.

 

[Porque]

Man Utd can go for Soler.

I don't understand why Xavi wants to keep Pjanic! 32 y.o. washed up veteran, who makes 15.6 million a year?!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We need to unload that huge salary from our books.

As far as I know, Pljanic would be glad to stay and eaven more - he is redy to get new deal with serious paycut. So... I don't know...

 

[Porque]

Too much talk about paycut and two days before first game of season with no actual paycut.

Would probably be an extension with the pay spread over more years to help with amortizing.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

How many more years he has left?

No way we give him extension though..

 

[Porque]

Until 2024. 2 years.

We can't unload him with ease though. Nobody is going to offer close to that salary to him.

| It was Alfred Schreuder who advised Koeman not to count on Pjanic. Now, he has got a new chance under Xavi although he will not be a starter. Pjanic will not lower his salary because he already reduced it by 50% when he went on loan to Besiktas. [@ferrancorreas] #fcblive

FU Schreuder, hope he flops at Ajax.

Also, imagine a man like Pjanić taking 50% pay cut to go on loan to Turkey while all our Catalan golden boys can do is deferred wages shit.
